Tuition fees are established by the Governing Council of the University of Toronto and are subject to change at any time. The two components of the annual fees are: Academic (including instruction and library), and Incidental/Ancillary Fees (including Athletics, Hart House, Health Service, and Student Organizations). Additional ancillary fees may also be assessed for enrolment in a specific faculty and or specific courses. Additional fees may also be assessed to cover special services.

Compulsory fees for registration consist of academic, incidental and ancillary fees. Academic fees vary depending on program of study, and year of admission to the Faculty. All students in the Degree programs are charged a program fee for the four years of study. Students in the Artist Diploma are charged a program fee for the three years of study. A program fee is a set fee for the fall-winter academic session regardless of a student’s course load, provided the load falls within a defined range.

Students who have completed the required number of years for full time study, are eligible to be enrolled in a part time course load for any additional years of study. A load less than 4.0 credits for the fall-winter session constitutes a part time course load. Part time students pay based on the credit weight of the course.

Students who intend to have a course load (for the fall-winter session) that will make you eligible for part time status must notify the Registrar by e-mail before the 1st of September.
